division after the first round was completed.
Chris Lemley from Team Old Waverly Golf
Club held the lead in the individual over 50
division after recording a 71 (-1) in the first
round. On Sunday, Round 2 got off to a chilly
start with temperatures being in the upper
30’s when the first group’s teed off at 8:00am.

all of the scores were entered, it was Old
